Exclusive: A+E Networks format Bride and Prejudice is heading to the UK after Channel 4 commissioned a local version of the relationship series.
The British broadcaster has commissioned a five-part series, based on the show that launched on Fyi in March 2016, from 7 Wonder. The production company was recently acquired by Banijay Group, the international group that owns Keeping Up With The Kardashians producer Bunim Murray.
Bride and Prejudice, which has a similar tone to series such as Married At First Sight, explores what happens when love comes up against a prejudice so strong that it threatens to tear relationships apart. It tells the stories of six soon to be wed couples as they confront a deeply held opposition to their marriage from within their own families, whilst trying to organise their dream weddings. For each couple, there is at least one family member who is dead set against their wedding ever taking place.
